    Suicide Policy

    NAMI is sporadic in their availability. They were horrible in Baltimore, I had to use my SIL who worked for national to get ANY response. If this is your case, check with your health department. I...

    Honey, I'm Home!

    Follow your heart, money is secondary. Not to mention that giving up that CM position would allow a nurse who has that as a dream can fulfill

    These parents are killing me

    I had 30 different students and 40 visits today. That is a quarter of the school. First really nice day in three weeks and a specials day where the students were half day on the playground made for a...

    Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    I was the first to say and mean, I love family staying over night on my floor. Patients sleep so much better with loved ones

    Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    One of the most important reasons I left acute care was lack of accountability. CNAs were always given the same tagline regarding patient care "it is all of our responsibility". After being written up...

    Need help..hate my job :(

    I feel for you. Sounds like I may know you, as that sounds like my old university based floor. I left after 28 years, and will never look at another hospital position again unless things change a lot....

    What is your dream job?

    Clorox and DFACS
